The Future of Human and AI Collaboration

The 31st Annual WITI Summit, Prompt ’25: The Future of Human and AI Collaboration, isn’t just another conference – it’s a revolutionary AI-powered experience. This two-day global event brings together industry leaders, AI pioneers, and business innovators to explore the real-world impact of AI on workforce innovation, leadership, and business transformation.

Unlike traditional conferences, Prompt ’25 is fully interactive, featuring:

  • Hands-On AI Mini-Labs – Roll up your sleeves and build a no-code agent pipeline alongside Brooks Wood and Brad Rochefort—templates included, zero coding required.
  • Live Demo & Rapid-Prototype Showcases – Watch a transcript morph into a cinematic trailer in under 90 seconds with StoneAI, and see how Amanda Fornal spun up an MVP in just three weekends.
  • AI-Powered Networking – Smart matchmaking plus facilitated breakouts (AI Discovery & Mid-Year Momentum) connect you with the collaborators and clients who can accelerate your 2025 goals.
  • Thought-Leading Keynotes & Workshops – Renard T. Jenkins, Raymond Hegarty, Ray Leonard Jr., Sheila Noriega Venero, Divya Parekh, and other visionaries unpack strategy, IP, leadership, and enterprise transformation.
  • Actionable Playbooks & Templates – Leave with an IP-protection checklist, AI-governance framework, personal SWOT worksheet, and accountability partners to keep momentum high.

Tuesday | July 15, 2025

  • 8:00 am — 8:10 am PT
    🎤 Welcome & Opening Remarks
    David Leighton, Co-Founder & CEO, WITI

    David sets the tone for Prompt’25—sharing the summit’s vision, the big themes you’ll explore over the next two mornings, and how each session fits into “The Future of Human and AI Collaboration.”
  • 8:15 am — 9:00 am PT
    🧠 Agentic AI (Talk + Interactive Engagement)
    Agentic AI takes us from prompt-response chat to autonomous, goal-seeking agents. Brooks Wood and Brad Rochefort combine technical depth with narrative craft to show you how agents plan, reason, and act—then guide you through a hands-on mini-lab where you’ll stand up a lightweight agent pipeline (no coding required).
  • 9:00 am — 9:40 am PT
    📣 State of the Industry: AI Re-inventing Storytelling, Supply Chains & Customer Experience
    Renard T. Jenkins – President & CEO, I2A2 Technologies; SMPTE Past-President; former Warner Bros. SVP 20-min “flash-keynote” + 10-min live Q&A
    What to expect:
    • Fast snapshot of AI’s inflection point across media & entertainment—and the spill-over lessons for healthcare, education, marketing, and enterprise ops.
    • Real case studies: agentic workflows, virtual production, synthetic data, personalized content pipelines.
    • Governance & ethics watch-list (standards, inclusion, bias-mitigation).
  • 9:40 am — 10:10 am PT
    🤝 AI Discovery Networking Breakouts
    3 rounds × 10 min — 4-to-5 people per room Round 1 (9:30–9:40)
    “Name the single most useful AI tool you discovered in the first half of 2025 and one way it changed your workflow.”

    Round 2 (9:40–9:50)
    “Share an AI-related challenge you haven’t solved yet. What type of partner, data, or resource could help?”

    Round 3 (9:50–10:00)
    “Make one bold prediction: How will agentic AI reshape your role or industry by 2026?”

    Rooms auto-rotate after each 10-minute round; on-screen timer + prompts keep everyone on track.

    • Leave with a curated list of attendee-recommended AI tools.
    • Identify at least one potential collaborator for your open challenge.
    • Capture forward-looking insights to discuss in the 10:10 AI Tools Lab.
  • 10:10 am — 11:00 am PT
    Doctor GPT: Prescribing AI—From Chatbots to Life-Saving Workflows

    Dr. Harvey Castro, MD, MBA — “Dr GPT,” Emergency Physician & Generative-AI Entrepreneur

    Session Format

    30 min high-energy talk (case studies + live demo)

    20 min interactive Q&A and lightning “diagnosis” of audience use-cases

    What You’ll Learn

    AI at the Bedside, Lessons for the Boardroom – How generative agents are streamlining triage, documentation, and clinical decision-support (and how the same patterns translate to finance, retail, and ops).

    From Zero to Workflow in 15 Minutes – Live build-out of a mini “doctor’s orders” agent using off-the-shelf LLM tools—no code required.

    Risk, Regulation, and Reality Checks – HIPAA, bias, hallucinations: a frontline view of what really matters when lives (or livelihoods) are on the line.

    Your AI Prescription – A simple 3-step framework to pilot an agentic workflow in your own department within 30 days.

    Why Dr. Castro?
    Known online as “Dr GPT,” Harvey bridges ER pragmatism with startup speed. He’s authored ChatGPT and Healthcare, advises Fortune-500s on AI safety, and still treats patients—so every example comes with real-world ROI and guardrails built in.

    Attendees will leave with a downloadable “AI Prescription Pad” (prompt templates + workflow checklist) to start experimenting the moment the session ends.
  • 11:00 am — 11:30 am PT
    From Idea to MVP in Three Weekends: A Real-World Case Study in AI-Enabled Storytelling

    Speaker:
    Amanda Fornal - Business Consultant, Explorer, Startup Advisor, Founder

    Session Snapshot (30 min)
    What does it actually take to go from idea to a working proof of concept using AI tools—with limited time and resources? Amanda Fornal shares her experience building a story-preservation platform over three weekends during a Bolt.new hackathon, walking through the key steps, decisions, and challenges.

    Inside the Talk:
    - Weekend 1: Researched user needs, mapped flows, and built a first version using Bolt.new, Supabase, OpenAI, and Stripe.
    - Weekend 2: Integrated GitHub, worked with a senior software engineer, and experimented with voice/video tools like ElevenLabs and Tavus.
    - Weekend 3: Polished features, built support pages, and scoped future integrations.

    Amanda will also share what features were held back due to technical limitations, the bugs that surfaced, and how the process helped validate an idea that had been in her head for years.

    What You'll Take Away:
    - A realistic view of building a proof of concept with AI tools
    - A breakdown of trade-offs when working within short sprints
    - Thoughts on when to bring in technical expertise
    - Practical inspiration to move from idea to action, even if your timeline is tight

    Note: This is not a no-code celebration talk. It’s a transparent discussion about what’s possible (and what’s not), what tools helped, and where more traditional technical skills were still required.
  • 11:30 am — 12:00 pm PT
    Rights, Camera, Algorithm: Reinventing Storytelling with StoneAI
    30 minutes

    Step inside the future of visual storytelling, where AI meets cinematic craft. StoneAI Co‑Founder & CEO David Leighton teams up with cybersecurity trailblazer Pamela Fusco (standing in for Evan B. Stone, who joins virtually from Shark Week) to reveal how StoneAI’s proprietary engines—FrameShift, Context360, and Veritas AI—can turn a raw interview transcript and a handful of still images into a studio‑ready trailer in under 90 seconds. You’ll see a live demo, learn how director‑level nuance is embedded in every frame, and discover the iron‑clad chain‑of‑custody safeguards that keep IP and compliance airtight.

    After the demo, David and Pamela will unpack what Hollywood, history networks, and global brands are learning from these tools, followed by a rapid‑fire Q&A on creative, legal, and ethical considerations. Walk away with a practical “Three C’s” checklist—Creative vision, Compliance, Credibility—and fresh inspiration to prototype marketing, educational, or documentary visuals in hours instead of weeks.
  • 12:00 pm — 12:15 pm PT
